Papa, Kathy, and Les's visit

This was a couple of weeks back, but I like these pics: The one asleep is his first trip out in public, to breakfast. In the words of Emily, we told ourselves, "It's a baby, not a bomb."











Eddie always has to be in on the action.

Smiling

So Fletcher is beginning to grace us with some big toothless grins. Inside, though, he is sad that Franny left today- he misses her already. We have really appreciated your help over the past few days!

picture compliments of Gigi- I have realized that there are no pictures of mom, really, so here you go. Brian looks very wise, like he has reading glasses on. We don't look as tired as we actually are.

Emily and Chrissie visiting - this is Ava Belle






















After a bath - or as Emily puts it - a bottom soak.




















Kathy and Leslie, Eddie looks like he's ready for a meal















Emily and Grace, and their daughters, AB and Miller










Fletch meets Chrissie for the first time. He knows he's in good hands with the pediatrician. Eddie's thought at this moment - "get out of my chair people"

family comes to visit

I love Franny and Chief!

















The Brocato bunch is in town for a bit...











We miss you Lee Lee!













Papa had a cold.













a very curious greyhound.
















Julie, Josh, Ethan, and Zachary came and ran around the yard. Unfortunately, Fletch slept most of the time. We think he had a good time with his cousins, though.
















Grace and Miller have been by a few times- Fletcher said that he can't wait to go swimming at the Thompsons this summer. We'll have Chik-Fil-A milkshakes- it will be great.

baby yawn.
